More massive stars die by photodisintegration.
Indeed, it is fair to say that modern cosmology is essentially the study of the statistics of density fluctuations, whether probed by photons, or by more massive tracers, such as galaxies.
By way of comparison, 15 years earlier Jupiter had sustained a more massive series of hits by debris from the breakup of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9, which produced many temporary features in the dense Jovian atmosphere.
The roof is supported by more massive wooden beams, all visible from the second floor.
All it would take, he says, is for a more massive object to pass by and capture the planemo, forming a conventional solar system.
With a mass of 1.213 Msun and a radius of 1.486 Rsun, Kepler-8 is more massive than the Sun by about a fifth of the Sun's mass, and is nearly three halves its size.
Thus, significant changes in only specific cells or tissues that amount to a small fraction of the animal mass (such as the nervous system), may be obscured by more massive tissues (such as the intestine or the musculature).
The fact that the Programme has triggered the use of regular and other resources for child labour-related activities in several Country Programmes is a remarkable sign of growing commitment, but needs to be complemented by a more massive mobilisation of resources for the fight against child labour by governments, civil society (including the private sector), and external support agencies.
The possibility remains that a significant quantity of heavy elements may be produced by a very large number of less spectacular stars or by much more massive objects that are mentioned below.
Physicists ought to be able to reach even lower temperatures by using more massive atoms such as rubidium or cesium, says Rudi Grimm of the University of Innsbruck in Austria.
